direct train is just over 2 hours from Euston, I'd say the latest you could arrive at Piccadilly would be 7pm - even then it's a walk/tram that'll take 20/25 mins
I've no idea how many people do to Man United games from the centre of Manchester, but the trams are rammed enough to get to the Old Trafford cricket ground, which has less than a third of the capacity of the football ground.
Only ever done the tram once after a rugby league grand final where the place was full. Took forever to get back to the city centre, awful. Last few times I’ve been to OT I stayed near the Trafford Centre. Cab down, walked back. Much better.

My hope is that unlike such games like the RL final with "two" sets of away fans, lots of the regulars will have their own parking spaces or coach arrangement, so a lower percentage will be going back towards the centre.
Even then it still baffles me how such large grounds like OT can cope, as unlike the likes of St James Park or Anfield you can't walk back to the centre from there.
is there a way of actually telling me how many tickets left?
and also will we get more if required i thought there was a minimum 12% rule?
or does that not count as we are not a pl team
Add 7000 to your basket and only what's left will be shown. Don't forget to dump them back out though or nobody else will be able to purchase for a minute lol

You might be better walking to Salford Quays metro (which is about 15 minutes walk) rather queueing at Old Trafford. Salford Quays is on a different line.
Anyone know how Charlton are selling our tickets. Is it block by block and if so what blocks are being sold first. I have heard that there is no official standing areas for away fans!!

Another option is going the wrong way then changing and coming back
I am worried about the post. If I order online, can I tick a box for collection at the Valley once Charlton receive the tickets? I become eligible to buy tomorrow afternoon but Charlton don't receive until 5th. Obviously collection on 7th when we play Lincoln will be easiest but not sure if the ticket office could cope with that.

There is a collect from the Valley option, you'll get a follow up email when they are ready for collection

There is a safe standing option as an option
There is but good luck trying to get a ticket for standing - who would have thought Charlton could get the information wrong 😱
Of course the players will put in a performance, in the same way they put in a performance against Brighton. They'll raise their level for the big game, leading to all the pundits who don't watch us regularly, saying
"I don't understand why they're near the bottom of L1"
Does the online booking system know I am a Valley Gold member? Its not visible when I log in and I only have 460 loyalty points so want to be able to buy my ticket on 2nd in Phase 7 rather than wait for Phase 8 on 3rd Jan via my points.

Our current crop of players roll over with ease.

It's Man U, not MK Dons. They'll easily be able to sell their home tickets.
edit; scrap that it’s only after 21 points and two clear 🤦♂️.
Seems they are too busy tweeting about 20% off online digital gift cards.
